DigitalOcean Managed Agents
DigitalOcean's managed service combining isolated agent execution, governed tool access, and serverless inference in one cloud offering.
Overview
DigitalOcean launched the public preview of Managed Agents on September 22, 2026, unifying agent execution, tool access, and inference on one cloud stack. Each agent session runs in its own hardware-isolated harness runtime (compatible with harnesses teams already use), with governed access to more than 16,000 tools and Serverless Inference across 75-plus open and proprietary models, metered only while the agent is active. Launch partners building on the platform include OpenHands, Qencode, and Amplitude.
